Let's Capture Our Memories sketch #82- Cool dude!

It's reveal day at Let's Capture Our Memories and up on the blog is sketch #82 by none other than Isabelle, the store's owner! And it's such a cool sketch... I love what the design team has done.

My take on the layout is done with a picture of DS#1 taken as he had discovered the dirt bike hill trail behind the campground. He loved it so much, could spend hours there... if only we didn't have to eat, or sleep... The funniest is when he asked his daddy to have his bike when it "would be too small for him." So cute!

Here's the sketch:




And here's my interpretation of it:



It's obvious by now I love Simple Stories and the Urban Traveller collection is no exception! It's so loud and rambunctious, just like my boys. Most of all, I feel it's so easy to do an action or travel layout with these papers, they're just perfect for going places, figuratively or literally!

The cute wood veneers have been inked with Tsukineko Brilliance ink- it's so cool how they stay on great and dry really quick. These are the same inks that stamp well on photos without smearing and breaking. Love these!

Thanks for looking!

Creative Scrappers Sketch 259

This is a layout inspired by a most amazing sketch site. It is always brimming with ideas, inspiration, great sketches and wonderful scrappers who share their passion. I made this fall layout about a day trip to Fundy Park, at Thanksgiving this year. It was a beautiful October day. We hiked, walked 2 trails in the park, explored the camping grounds (ideas for next year) and started the day off with a great picnic. What a wonderful view. Next year, the boys will be bigger, and we might get more of that second trail done, with less carrying...  :)







I love this collection by Simple Stories. Harvest Lane is so versatile, so cheerful.
